打兩份工叫Work life balance?! 大麻合法已經唔係人住既地方.
。。。仲有阿媽唔一定係女人呢樣
呢個台有良心 講真嘢食m，值得我follow，多謝妳們。
Work life balance 但又要打多一兩份工先維持倒生活 咁咪又係冇work life balance? 咪仲衰過香港
無事無幹就work life balance，但當屋企遇到維修問題、治安問題、租屋問題......下下都等幾日幾個星期至搞，捱咁耐係唔係work life balance﹖
Exactly. 果然清醒😅
打兩份工唔係個culture，加拿大人做嘢一世都layback，效率就更唔洗多諗了，點會有個culture佢哋會願意做嘢？打兩份工只係生活所迫，稅重、人工唔高，但對住那些稅單、租單、高昂生活費等等，無得選擇，必須要搵多個income source。有得揀，你估佢哋會唔會想有呢個「culture」？
又要炭，底氣又唔夠
